About The Book

The real-life adventures of the paranormal investigators-slash-plumbers who star in the hit television show Ghost Hunters.

The Atlantic Paranormal Society, also known as TAPS, is the brainchild of two plumbers by day, paranormal investigators by night: Jason Hawes and Grant Wilson. Their hair-raising investigations, fueled by their unique abilities and a healthy dose of scientific method, have made them the subject of a hit TV show: Ghost Hunters.

Now they recount, with the help of veteran author Michael Jan Friedman, the stories of some of their most memorable investigations. The men and women of TAPS pursue ghosts and other supernatural phenomena with the most sophisticated scientific equipment available—from thermal-imaging cameras to electromagnetic-field recorders to digital thermometers—and the results may surprise you. Featuring both cases depicted on Ghost Hunters and earlier adventures never told before now, this funny, fascinating, frightening collection will challenge everything you thought you knew about the spirit world.
